Project
The idea for the Jazz-Makhom project was initially suggested by the Uzbek manager and musical producer Asror Isahodjaev and then developed by Andrea Romani. The central idea is to create an original melting of jazz and the Uzbek maqom tradition, bringing to life “other-ways” the Uzbek maqoms without altering their essence.This project has been developed thanks to a collaboration between Uzbek and European musicians and funded by the Embassy of France in Uzbekistan, then the same concept was extended to other central asian countries
these are three entire arrangments of three classical uzbek maqom songs, by the jazzmaqom orchestra . Performed during the concert in muqimi theather in tashkent, october 2021
By bringing the maqôms to life in a different way, it is also a question of making this form better
known as
in its original form as a cultural
heritage
